Actually glad to see you alive.... and the NGate utility come up in
discussion... I've been using MAILGATE and NGATE both for a very long time
until recently and was very happy with both when they were working for me.

I've run into two glitches, one on each.. if you're willing to offer any
suggestions, I'm willing to implement them.

NGATE (v0.34) seems to only work with news servers that support unauthenticated
access. Is there any way to provide a username/password to NGATE so that it can
authenticate with my provider's news server?

MAILGATE (v1.11c)... recently, after applying current FixPaks... I'm
encountering two scenarios:

  with Send=Pipe, the Pipe talking to sendmail hangs and the message is never
sent.

  with Send=Queue, the message is queued, but sendmail refuses to process it
with the following complaint when executing 'sendmail -q -v':
